This is EFI bios, no cmos mem in hardware, all setting stored on flash.
Removing battery only reset clock.

pulling the cmos didnt do anything.

but i found out what the problem was: one of the ram banks is broken. it took me so long to find this because neither the bios nor cpuz/hwinfo showed that there was a problem.

hello

i upgraded my 1700/x370 pro prime to a 2700X/x470 taichi and kept my gskill flare x 3200 ram (which was prime/HCI stable with xmp preset). after setting up my system i wanted to OC the ram and thats when the problems began.

with the xmp presets from 2666 - 3200 i was able to load into windows but not one of those was stable, it crashed after a few minuts of prime95/HCI.

then i flashed to the beta bios 1.30 but nothing changed. after that i used the ryzen dram calculator to get the safe timings for 3200mhz and put them into the bios. i never got into windows with any of those timings so i defaulted my bios back and used the xmp preset to get back into windows (eve thought its still not stable).

now here is where the "fun" begins: all xmp presets now fail to load and revert back to 2400mhz. im at this problem now for 3 days and all out of ideas.

any help is greatly appreciated.
